[QUOTE="starbiscuit, post: 540751, member: 18416"] I used foil-faced pyrofoam, cut to a cardboard template that I made from the bus. Fire retardant, heat-resistant, sound insulating, and the foil should reflect heat back into the engine bay. That's the theory, anyway :roll: The *only* downside I could see is that it's open-cell foam (as it needs to be for effective noise reduction), so getting it wet wouldn't be so good because it would retain water.
